In-game checks

Confirm Mute Mode is not set to hold unless you are holding the assigned control, and verify nobody silenced the player through moderation settings.

Platform checks

On PS5, turn off Mute Game Voice Chat in the system Sound panel. On macOS, enable Big Walk under Privacy & Security > Microphone.
